to the automated analysis of biomolecules and new drugs now account for a large percentage of the research and publications in this field In comparison, gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) and electron ionization (EI) mass spectra of ‘‘small’’ molecules play a less important role than they once did But GC/MS is far from dead, and EIMS continues to be the ionization method of choice for many laboratories that routinely analyze volatilizable low molecular mass compounds such as drugs, flavor and odor components, pesticides, and petroleum products This situation seems unlikely to change in the near future The interpretation of EI mass spectra has always been a challenging subject to learn and to teach—especially to individuals who have not had the benefit of a graduate education in chemistry or who have been out of college for several years The challenge is compounded by manufacturer-encouraged reliance on library search results for compound identification Why learn anything about spectral interpretation when the computer can all the work? The answer to this question is simple, as most conscientious users quickly realize The library search often does not provide a realistic answer or (worse) may provide an answer that looks correct but is not Even software programs that profess to ‘‘interpret’’ unknown spectra can only provide probable answers After that, you are left to your own devices It was tempting to substantially increase the breadth and depth of the material that was covered in the first edition However, my experience has been that an encyclopedic presentation of mass spectral interpretation does not give beginning mass spectrometrists what they need, which is a presentation that provides a few fundamental concepts in a logical, organized manner, without distracting and unnecessary detail I wrote and revised this book for beginning mass spectrometrists, and I have retained the simplicity of its approach for that reason My own understanding of mass spectral interpretation has developed, and continues to develop, by trial and error I am admittedly mostly self-taught My knowledge of mass spectral literature has been limited by the nature of my career, whose primary focus was forensic science, not mass spectrometry Some will see that as a xi 358 INDEX Curran, D.P., 54 Current, electron multiplier output, 33, 34, 35, 38–39, 41, 46 Cyanoacetylene, loss of, 311 Cycloheptatrienyl (tropylium) ion,

Biopolymers such as peptides may have charge states of þ10 or more from protonation of basic sites on the molecule Since mass spectrometry actually measures the mass- tocharge ratio (m/z) of an ion, not its mass, an ion having a charge greater than þ1 is found not at the m/z value corresponding to its mass (m), but rather at m/2, m/3, or m/4, depending on the number of charge states Further, if m is not evenly... consistency regarding the terms used for the atomic mass unit The single term amu was used at one time, but it had different definitions in physics and chemistry, both involving 16 O as a standard mass This term was discontinued when a unified standard mass was adopted The International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) suggests the unified atomic mass unit (abbreviated u), which is based on 12C...
